Ollies beanbag

Well Ollie is growing very well, he had his 2nd vacination at the vets on monday and he was very brave. Afterwards we went to the river near the old bridge so Lily could take photos and Jasper began leaping from pylon to pylon under the bridge. Well I was holding Ollie and I ended up having to take him back to the car as he was so worried about Jasper (his daddy) falling in the water. He was shaking so violently and wouldn't take his eyes off him. Poor little guy....Life must be so incredible for one sooo small!! Anyway, one of his other loves besides his "big daddy" is his purple beanbag which previously belonged to Lily but has been commandeered by little Ollie. He dives into it, burys his head, zooms around the loungeroom and flys back full bore into it practicing his headstands. He is one wild little guy!!! Seeing Jasper and him play is like having two puppys (one very large one!).

Well I finally managed to add a few feeds. I was totally complicating the procedure and making it harder than it was. In fact it's really quite simple!! and useful!!

Iam  facinated by the incredible symmetry found in nature, eg in flowers, seashells, spider webs, snow flakes to name a few. These are my photos downloaded from Flickr.

Symmetry in Nature

Oliver and the bee

A couple of saturdays ago, I was getting ready to go out to dinner when Lily yelled" Olies been stung by a bee"!! Oh dear here we go I thought, no dinner and a HUGE vet bill! We couldn't find an obvious place that he had been stung so assumed he may have swallowed the bee. He went very quiet very quickly and rather floppy with short breaths. It seemed like anaphalactic shock but not too extreme. I rang Murdoch vet and the girl told me I could bring him in for a needle (at great cost) but that I could give him antihistimine if I wanted too. I decided to take a risk, trust my instincts and give him a quarter of a tablet of antihistimine. It did the trick in about 7 mins. Whew....stressful!! I'm glad it was all ok. It's hard to tell the outcome at the time. Hopefully he will stay away from bees in future but I doubt thats the last dangerous moment for our little adventure seeker!!!

Olivers Country jaunt

Well Oliver had his first trip away down South to Narrogin on the weekend! He was a very good boy in the car there and back. He met my parents' gigantic black cats Phantom and Pluto who took rather an avid dislike to him and started attacking anyone who walked by including Lily who, after being clawed on the leg, fell over and smashed her knee on the hard tiles and got a huge bruise. Jasper got a few puncture wounds too but Ollie, Chris and I managed to escape! Anyway I think Ollie likes travelling..... stay tuned for his next adventure!!!

Life with Oliver

Oliver is our cute little new fam member we rescued through S.A.F.E. He has had a rather exciting life so far,
born in Parabadoo, going to be put to sleep with a big needle, moving to Karratha and then flying all the way to Perth to live in our mad house. He fits in very well as he is one crazy puppy!  Here is a pic of him at 7 weeks, he melts hearts, except when he is pooing on out clothes and stealing our undies! He is seriously adorable now at 9 weeks and a little bigger...and a little rascal!
